I completely understand! My boys were about that age when they started realizing their dad wasn't reliable. On my oldests 4th birthday Dad didn't show up. When he called a few days later, he told Dad " I understand you didn't come. It's ok b/c mom was here" and he hung up the phone. It broke my heart, but after telling my son soo many times that "something important must have come up and I'm sorry he didn't call to let us know" my son had enough. My boys are now almost 9 and don't have a relationship with their dad outside of a 1 hr visit every year or so...
Hang in there, it will get better
